Title | Professional Development Opportunity for Secondary Teachers |
Body | From: "Maki Watanabe" /senseionline@yahoogroups.com I am sorry that this is only for teachers in Alabama, California, Indiana,Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Texas and West Virginia in the U.S. But I believe that it will be a great advocacy opportunity to promote importance of learning Japanese to and gain more supports from your colleagues teaching other than Japanese language, such as social studies, fine arts, geography and so on. I'd appreciate it if you could hand this information to your colleagues and any other teachers in the above mentioned states who are not familiar with Japan. Thank you, Watanabe JFLA ____________________________ Toyota International Teacher Program The Toyota International Teacher Program is a unique study abroad opportunity for American educators. It provides a first-hand professional development experience in an international setting, and its benefits extend to the classroom and community in the U.S. through specially devised impact plans proposed by each participating teacher. Comments from a 2003 participant supports the two-way benefit of the program: "I applied to the Toyota program as an opportunity to bring something new to my teaching, to be able to make a difference in my students. What happened is far more than I ever hoped for or expected."
